Abstract:
|
We investigated the potential for anti-smoking advertising to generate interpersonal pressure on smokers to quit using the Cancer Institute’s Tobacco Tracking Survey (CITTS), a telephone survey of adult smokers (n = 5448) which included questions relating to recently broadcast anti-smoking advertisements. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to predict: (a) ad-generated interpersonal pressure; and (b) quitting outcomes. All analyses controlled for media weight and smoker characteristics. Compared to ads categorised as ‘how-to-quit’, ads classified as ‘why-to-quit’ (1) narrative-testimonial, (2) graphic, or (3) reflective in style, were more likely to have generated interpersonal pressure. Ad-generated interpersonal pressure was associated with increased likelihood of recent quit attempts. Interpersonal pressure generated by graphic and narrative-testimonial ads was positively associated with frequent quitting thoughts. Results support previous research suggesting that ‘why-to-quit’ ads with personal stories or graphic imagery hold promise for efforts to promote smoking cessation, as well as helping to elucidate communication processes that contribute to their success. |
